    @EternalDarkness I kinda want to but I'm not great at keeping secrets. This thing is going to be powering an Eindecker E.III very soon. Since you mentioned it I may just have to build a Sopwith to go along with it.

    @90corvette oh. So, you'll keep the build a surprise?

    @EternalDarkness Thanks! While a Sop is really tempting, it's not what I have planned at the moment. The problem with that list is that it doesn't include all the planes that used a licensed copy built by a different manufacturer. I guess technically this one would be called an Oberursel U.I. however it is mechanically identically to the Gnome.

    It looks very nice. I found a list of 38 aircraft powered by that engine. I guess you are planning to make Sopwith Camel, as it is the most popular of them, or Sopwith Pup.
